SHORT- Stop Lifting the Putter (Lower, Longer Fix)-John Hughes Golf
Want to improve your putting quick right away? Here’s the simple move I want you to feel: finish your putter LOWER and LONGER down your putting line.
Most amateurs make this common mistake: the putter lifts up and turns. Why? Anxiety. You get impatient and want to look up and see what’s going on… and the putter closes and comes off line.
Be patient. Get rid of that anxiety. Think LOWER, LONGER—down the line and low to the ground—and you’ll be more accurate with your putting.
